web site
for further details including processor, memory and operating system support.
WARNING: This action should only be performed by a trained service technician. Allow the
processor heatsink to cool before removing it.
Removing a Processor
1. Power down and remove the blade unit from the enclosure (see
Installing Blade Modules on page 3-1
2. Remove the cover of the blade unit (see
page
3-2).
3. Loosen the four screws that secure the heatsink to the mainboard.
4. Remove the heatsink by gently rotating it back-and-forth sideways with your fingers
to release it from the processor. Set the heatsink aside and upside-down so that
nothing comes into contact with the thermal grease on its underside.
5. Raise the lever of the processor socket up until the processor is released from the
socket, then lift the silver cover plate and remove the processor.
6. Reapply plastic socket covers to the LGA2011 sockets to prevent pin damage.
